My battery in my car keeps going dead even after being charged. I have had the emergency roadside service come out 6 times to recharge the battery.

Hello, thanks for writing in. There aren't very many reasons for the battery to die with a properly working charging system. The alternator maintains the charge on the battery even when the vehicle is sitting still. Have the vehicles battery and charging system inspected by a professional. The battery itself may even be the cause after so many jump starts and charges.
